Transmigrating into the Male Supporting Character’s Ex-wife-Chapter 44

Ruan Jiu Jiu silently went through the items in the fridge. The steak should be something that was purchased yesterday. Prior to that, there was simply no steak at home. It was the same for the red wine and candles, they were bought recently. There were two portions or two pairs of all the food and cutlery.

Everything had been arranged while she was at work.

So—

Several possibilities emerged in Ruan Jiu Jiu’s mind.

The first: Cheng Jun didn’t have a business trip at all. Instead, he was taking advantage of her being away from home to arrange a candlelight dinner with some other woman.

The second: Cheng Jun’s business trip was cancelled so he decided to book a candlelight dinner date with some other woman.

The third: Cheng Jun was cheating.

“…”

Ruan Jiu Jiu considered that you couldn’t rely on some suspicions and flimsy evidence to convict someone for a crime. She had to find other evidence. She closed the fridge door. In an instant, Detective Jiu came online. Her eyes were as grave and stern as they flashed like lightning, quickly moving over the room to search for other traces.

When a woman’s attention was raised, she was truly formidable. Ruan Jiu Jiu examined things from the entrance, discovering that there were two tracks of mud on the mat that had already dried. The tracks left by her and Cheng Jun’s shoes had been wet. Last night it snowed and the mat had been washed previously, so it was definitely left by a third person.

Next, Ruan Jiu Jiu successfully discovered a few hairs left on the sofa and dining table. They weren’t long, and were black.

Ruan Jiu Jiu’s mind instantly whipped up an image of a woman with short hair.

Right when Ruan Jiu Jiu was imagining what the two people’s secret text messages might look like, Cheng Jun, who had changed into a relaxed pair of pajamas, rubbed his eyes as he lazily walked out of the study.

Two pairs of eyes met, a pair of wide ones meeting a pair of small ones.

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “!”

Cheng Jun: “?”

“I believe there’s an issue with some formalities between us,” Ruan Jiu Jiu said in a grave voice as she slapped a palm on the table. “Back then, didn’t we agree that if the other found someone they liked, we would peacefully go our separate ways?”

“…”

The look in Cheng Jun’s eyes suddenly became a bit strange. Just then, they had been misty and disorganized, but when Ruan Jiu Jiu said her piece, they instantly changed and sharpened fixedly.

Suddenly being stared at like this was a bit scary. Ruan Jiu Jiu was startled but then remembered that this wasn’t right, it was Cheng Jun who violated their agreement, so why was she the one feeling uncertain?

Ruan Jiu Jiu stood up straight and fought to subdue the other with an imposing momentum.

“Do you remember or not?”

Cheng Jun walked over to the side table and lowered his body slightly to pick up a tangerine. After a long pause, he spoke excruciatingly slowly with an absent-minded manner, “I don’t remember.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu didn’t expect that Cheng Jun could act so shamelessly.

With the evidence in hand, she approached his back from behind and grabbed his arm. She attempted to lay her cards out on the table, “Then I’ll just say things clearly…”

The man in the middle of peeling a tangerine suddenly turned his head. His hair was fluffy and disheveled, scattered on his forehead. His thin pair of lips tightened together and he cast a sidelong glance at Ruan Jiu Jiu out of the corner of his lowered long and slender eyes.

Ruan Jiu Jiu felt like she was a puny little herbivore caught in the claws of a large carnivore and somehow grew nervous.

She realized that the distance between the two of them was a bit too close and subconsciously retreated a step. Her calves bumped into a corner of the sofa but the upper part of her body was still automatically moving backwards and she powerlessly fell back onto the sofa. She couldn’t control herself and let out a small squeak of alarm.

Cheng Jun took a step forwards in her direction.

His figure was very tall and the light illuminated him, casting a dark shadow that enveloped her. One of his hands came forwards to lightly lean on the back of the sofa. The crook of his arm was very close to Ruan Jiu Jiu’s ear and the light came from behind his back, making it hard to make out what expression he had in his eyes.

Ruan Jiu Jiu caught the very faint sour and tart scent of tangerines.

She suddenly had a big realization—This bastard was actually trying to use seduction to confuse and distract her, in order to make her forget about the matter!

Im! pos! ibble!

“Even though you’re very good-looking, we have to discuss the issue of you having a dog outside, because I don’t really want to get involved in other people’s relationship.”

“Have a dog?”

“It means that you’re keeping a lover outside!”

Cheng Jun’s first reaction was to stop for a moment in confusion, and then he immediately understood that Ruan Jiu Jiu wasn’t trying to discuss Gu You. His tensed body relaxed slightly and he asked, “Why would you think that?”

“What’s up with the steak and red wine in the fridge? You should be clear about things in your mind, don’t pretend like you’re stupid with me.” Ruan Jiu Jiu was about to hold up the strands of hair in her hand, but realized that she hadn’t noticed that she had relaxed her hand at some unknown time and dropped them onto the floor.

With a vexed look on her face, she searched the floor. “There was hair too, where’s the hair? Where’d it go…”

“That was Tu Nan,” Cheng Jun said.

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “Huh? What did Tu Nan come over here for?”

Cheng Jun’s gaze shifted to the side. “He…said he wanted to celebrate the holidays together.”

“So what you’re saying is Tu Nan knew you weren’t going on the business trip anymore and ran over to celebrate with you, yet forget to let me know?”

Cheng Jun chose to agree with Ruan Jiu Jiu. “…En.”

“That’s unacceptable! How can someone be so thoughtless?!”

Cheng Jun was just about to nod and echo her when the look on Ruan Jiu Jiu’s face, which had just still been furious, transformed into a sneer.

“Did you think that’s how I would react? So, why didn’t he let me know and why didn’t you let me know either? You can actually enjoy steak and wine with a clear conscience. Good, good for you, you don’t let me enjoy a meal by myself but it’s fine for you to go out on your own, and you even made me waste money going on a wild goose chase?”

Seeing that things were becoming more and more complicated by the second, Cheng Jun’s survival instincts flared up. “Actually this was all prepared for you.”

“Do you think I’d believe that?”

He had said too many lies, and now, she wouldn’t believe him even if he said the truth. Jun-nocchio now had to pay quite a high price for his actions.

Not only was there no breakfast, no lunch and no dinner, on the first day of the new year, Ruan Jiu Jiu didn’t say a single word to him and treated him like air. She only made enough food for one person and carried her bowl back to her room to finish it, leaving the lonely Cheng Jun to stand in the kitchen. He sighed.

Cheng Jun silently returned to the study. He turned on the computer and went to the homepage of Dangdang.com, then scrolled until he found the book he had bought before, “How to quickly get girls”.

For the first time in his life, he gave a three star review and added a comment: Useless.

That book gloriously met its end in the garbage can.

……

The one who earned the position of worst-off was Tu Nan.

After taking a nap, he woke up to discover that both the boss and the boss’s wife had blocked him.

“…”

With hot tears in his eyes, Tu Nan posted a line to his Wechat Moments: I won’t ever lick dogs again!

After only a few minutes.

Tu Nan’s dad sent him a Wechat message: When did you start raising a dog, why do you need to lick dogs?

Tu Nan’s mom: Did you drink too much again?! Quickly delete it, it’ll give a bad impression on any girls who see it!

Tu Nan: “…”

At night, Ruan Jiu Jiu sat on the sofa playing PUBG on her phone.

She was very depressed. And after she fell to the ground and became a loot box, and then was crazily trash-talked by her teammate, she became even more salty.

“Sis if you don’t know how to play then don’t bother playing.”

“With skills at that level you might as well buy an aimbot.”

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “…kms”

She was just about to find an aimbot service to buy, then go back and tyrannize them before getting banned, when Cheng Jun came out of the study. Ruan Jiu Jiu said “Ah!” Forgetting that she was still mad at him, she immediately called out to him, “Do you know how to play this game? Quickly come help me!”

Cheng Jun had a hand in a pocket. With a mischievous look on his face he walked over to Ruan Jiu Jiu’s side just in time to catch a young guy’s voice saying vulgarly, “Bitch, call me hubby once and I’ll gift you an 8x scope.”

Out of nowhere, Ruan Jiu Jiu felt a murderous aura.

Her back felt numb and goosebumps popped out one after another. The sofa sank down as Cheng Jun sat down next to her. There was still a fresh scent clinging to his body from his shower, and in a split second, that clean scent totally enveloped Ruan Jiu Jiu’s body.

His hand stretched behind her right shoulder and his elbow rested heavily on her back. The two of them were squeezed closely together. Ruan Jiu Jiu turned her head and almost bumped into his neck. For some reason, she felt a bit nervous.

Cheng Jun picked up the phone and briefly said, “Watch”.

Ruan Jiu Jiu’s mind was a bit blank. “Watch what?”

Cheng Jun’s hands could be said to be quite nimble.

Ruan Jiu Jiu stared helplessly as he speedily swapped guns. He controlled the character to run forwards two paces as if scouting things out and shot the gun. When the gun was out of bullets, the other players began to jeer one by one. “Aiyo, is the little girl angry? Don’t drop your gun!” There was no expression on Cheng Jun’s face. When his teammates were laughing happily as they mocked him, there was a sudden bang as he killed off an enemy that was about to mount a sneak attack with a headshot.

Ruan Jiu Jiu: “!!!”

The teammates were also dumbfounded. After a long pause, they finally spoke. Fuck! What’s up with you just now, did you accidentally hit the target or did you buy an aimbot?”

“Bang!”

As another shot rang out, he killed off another enemy player hidden behind another corner of the wall that was just about to run out to sneak attack them.

The teammates were totally dumbstruck by this second series of actions.

Just now they had been ridiculing Ruan Jiu Jiu, but now in an instant they were a bit embarrassed. Just at that time, Cheng Jun aimed at them and before they could react, threw a grenade over. The players perished on the spot. In the audio, there only remained a few people who were so pissed they began yelling and cursing, but then Cheng Jun muted the audio and reported them all.

The whole time Ruan Jiu Jiu just sat there watching, and now she couldn’t help but feel a bit startled.

“I thought you didn’t know how to play FPS games!”

Cheng Jun calmly made a noise of acknowledgement.

Merely dealing with some trash, he was more than capable.
